I thought you said they did find it????? Did I misunderstand you

no but i know it can be a sign of down syndrome...i just went through all that with my pregnancy...luckily the amnio came back negative...i will pray for you

She had to get some extensive blood testing done to rule out the down syndrome and her numbers came back great......so the way I understand is it's just a cosmetic thing...not sure I htought she said they found it...but apparently I misunderstood

Drb thats what I have heard... Down syndrome, but not always. 

Name: DRB | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 10:31 PM
well they say they blood test can mis 3 out of 10 down syndrome pregnancies.....thats why i went and got the amnio...cause my blood test came back great too...not to be a downer..im sorry..i just know i went through it and its all so very scary

wow I didn't know that!!!! keep this bumped so she sees that

yeah and cherry-if you are thinking about doing an amnio...it is scary but it will be alright...i am glad i did it...i would have worried myself for no reason and had the baby had down syndrome i would have felt better knowing i could be better prepared to be his mother. i will pray for you and keep you in my thoughts..i know how hard all of this is

well they said that they were unsure if they saw it or not so we go back to find out for sure if they see if now or not on Friday so all positive thoughts and prayers are welcome. We are not going to do an amnio. My husband and I chose not to go ahead with that because of the risks.

Hey DRB what did the doctor say it could be a sign of besides down syndrome? I had the blood test done and it came back wtih my numbers being 1 in 10,000 so that is great but, they have not said what else it could mean. 

Name: cherry Girl | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 11:25 PM
yes I have been told I spelt nasal wrong sorry I did go to school just an error. 

Name: DRB | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 11:25 PM
well for me the reasons they though charlie had downs was his long bones were too short (short long bone..oxymoron anybody?) and he has a club foot and also because he has a heart defect 

Name: DRB | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 11:27 PM
they had at first given me a 1 in 5 chance he had downs syndrome...so i did the amnio....nerves got the best of me after and i was sick in the parking lot...but it was fine...i was scared that i had hurt him 

Name: cherry Girl | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 11:35 PM
man that must have been scary for you. Is he all healthy and fine now? Is his heart condition bad? 

Name: cherry Girl | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 11:37 PM
I just wish they would tell me what else it could be a sign of. They said it was manily a sign of Downs and after the test came back in our favor I thought that we were in the clear and now the Doc told me no she wants me to go back and see what they see and have to say. I just want to find out that our baby is healthy you know.

we will love our baby no matter what I mean it is our child that we created but come on everyone wants a healthy baby. 

Name: DRB | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 11:42 PM
um yeah it was scary...

his heart condition the pediactric cardiologist i saw (and see again on the 29th) said it should heal on its own but if not then sometime after he is born he will have to have surgery to correct it. But because of it i wont be having him on the navy base where i would have had him i have to be in a hospital with a pediactric cardiologist on call. they are going to do an ultrasound as soon as he is born to check his heart.

yes i know how you feel. my mom had talked to me about what i would do if he had downs..and i would still have kept my pregnancy...it would have been harder but my life hasnt been easy thus far so why would i kill someone just to have an easy life? i completly understand..all i want is healthy baby...but i am not exactly getting that but i dont care..i love him anyways..he is mine..

what is his heart condition called?
I have a friend who has a daughter with a heart condition. 

Name: DRB | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 11:57 PM
ventricular septal defect 

Name: cherry Girl | Date: Apr 16th, 2008 11:58 PM
oh ok I have not heard of that, that is not what my friends baby had. She had to have heart sugery done right away because one of her valves was to small so every so many years she has to get bigger valves put in. 

Name: DRB | Date: Apr 17th, 2008 12:01 AM
no he has a hole between his left and right ventrical
